HOTEL REVIEWS

United Kingdom, Nov 2008
The staff were very friendly and helpful. Initially the 3 of us were allocated a room for 3 people that was TINY; we could not have opened a suitcase as well as walked around the beds. But the staff moved us to a room for 4 that was much more spacious, and our stay ended up being very pleasant. There are no lifts or elevators (we did not expect them anyway) but it could make carrying heavy luggage difficult. Very good value for centrally located London accommodation.

No hot water for three days!!! The hotel did not even try to resolve the problem after repeated requests. The hotel was under reconstruction at the time of our stay and construction dust was covering the tea cups and pretty much everything else in the breakfast area every morning! (There was no mention of reconstruction when we made the reservation, by the way.) Oh yes, and a simple guest room was used as the "breakfast area", which was so small that we usually could not get in... and instead of the promised English breakfast, all we got was some toast with butter, and some jam on good days...

Le prix était bas mais nous n'en avons pas eu plus que pour notre argent (chambre très petite, petit déjeuner minimum). Hotel en cours de travaux. Les parties rénovées sont OK. L'hotel sera bien quand les travaux seront terminés.

Me & my husband, both don't have complaint about this hotel. We might stay again for a next time. It is not 5star hotel, not so bad compare with the price and environment. There is no elevator, it made us exhauausted. Fortunately our luggage was not so big. The room was quite confined. The hotel was full when we stayed, whereas we'd never heard any others noises, we could sleep well. Breakfast is served indivisually,then if you have to go out soon after breakfast, you should arrive their breakfastroom earlier. Supermarkets which are open till 10~11pm, are not so far. It seems quite a lot of visitors who stayed in this area bought some stuff for dinner in the shops. Some of restaurants are also open till late night. We could find a restaurant after coming back from mucical.

the description on site does not match up. Staff were pleasant room was clean but there were holes in the sheets and the bathroom smelt. The decoration was very poor paint over the carpet partially decorated, holes in the walls. Breakfast area the patio tables were dirty it was cramped there was damp on the walls the table wasn't set the kitchen area looked dirty, carpets dirty, very low standard of hygiene.

Our experience: We arrived at 2 am and our room was not more free even if my written communication and telephone calling the previous day of late arrival. They gave us a downstairs room and we found a dead rat in the toilet. Breakfast not bad.

stayed in london with a friend and her 2 kids, welcoming at arrival was cold and arrogant ! the receptionniste clamed my creditcard immédiately for paying the whole stay of 3 nights wich I refused ! from that moment he was distant and hardly spoke to us. the staff was pourly dressed (very kind in breakfast room!!!) the hotel was looking as if it was war.....old, no maintenance, dirty ..... very disappointing ! but our stay was excellent since we took care for that so next time I just chose another hotel !

Because of big restoration of the Hotel, our rooms and most of the Hotel were very dirty. Some of the electrical plugs didn't work, no heat in the room so we had to contact the reception, very small room, very dirty in the dinning hall, not very friendly service in the dinning hall, which also was very small. However good service in the reception, but not a place where we would like to stay again.

while we were staying,the hotel was in the middle of renovations, we had a brand new room which was very nice and being new clean,but we thought that the floor we were put on should not have been in use while doing renovations for safety reasons. the dining room wasn't really big enough for the hotel, and it would have been helpfull to have a lift with suitcases to the room, the staff were helpfull when asked any thing,it is well situated for the tube station for getting around London

Very well placed hotel. The reception is disappointing , the cleaness of the room and also of the bathrooms is quite poor. The breakfast room is very little we couldn't have a breakfast during the first day. However it was a good stay and I advice this hotel for those who havn't much money and who are won't stay a long time in the hotel.

Very poor rooms with electric cables falling on our heads when getting in, no light bulb in several lamps, auxilliary heater, no soap. Broken shower... However, clean linen.

Hotel owner were very unkind with us. We were 2 couples, we booked for 2 double-rooms but for an overbooking caused by the owners disorganization, we were in a room for 4, privacy for 1, it was a hole of 2x2, dirty and impossible to stay. We'll never come back again, we were very angry about it.

According to the price a very very nice hotel. The place is very central and the staff OK. If you - like us - (6 persons on a football trip to London one weekend) want to slepp at the hotel only, the hotel is perfect. Good beds, hot water and excelent breakfest.

We stayed in London for three days and we were happy about the location of Airways Hotel. However, we were very disappointed about the cleanliness of the rooms, or I should say, the absence of cleanliness. The worst part was the bathroom and especially the shower which clearly had not been cleaned before our arrival (mud and hair everywhere, it was absolutely disgusting).

Hi, I stayed at Airways for 4 nights, but got a room in the basement which was terrible, my daughter was bitten by some bedbugs - and was itching all over - we complained and got another room on third floor which had just been renovated, so if you book this hotel - please state that you will not stay in the basement.

La première nuit j'ai eu la chambre 247: je n'ai jamais vu plus délabré que cette pièce. ma belle-mère avait la chambre 201: à part le lavabo non cassé, même chose. L'hôtel est en général délabré. Nous n'avions pas le choix du chamgement,mais on ne sent pas en sécurité. Même s'ils rénovent les chambres il est honteux de nous avoir fait dormir dans de telles conbditions, à ce prix là. Les draps ne sont pas changés, les serviettes ne sont pas blanches, il manque des rideaux de douche, etc.... Il faut se battre au petit dej pour avoir du pain. l'odeur des saucisses est bacon est "renversante", pour l'estomac. Je suis désolée d'être si négative,m ais la chambre 247 est ainsi: le lavabo est désolidarisé du mur, dans une sdb en kit, (1m² tout juste, wc compris). Les voilages sont noirs. Les poussières ne sont pas faites.....etc..la télé ne fonctionne pas...pour moi, pour un deux étoiles, cet hôtel doit fermer pour une rénovation et mise aux normes.

Unfortunately we are very angry... We must change the room one time in 3 days. The 2nd room had has a nice view of the emergency stair and was close to the kitchen. The condition of both rooms was very bad (defect lamps, wallpaper was teared to pieces, tap dripped). That's why we wouldn't recommend this location. During we had to change the room, the staff searched for something in our luggage. It seemed that some things are missed (luckly it wasn't). That's whay we wouldn't recommend this location.

For that price it was very good hotel, the biggest surprice was that we were living in the basement, under ground flour.

I have to say that was my first stay in that hotel but the service was offered was really poor and I am not going to make this mistake again. I wanted to stay only one night and I had to go to the training course through the work next day and bacuse the place was very noisy I couldn't get a proper sleep, and all the noise was from the kitchen and staff of the hotel and I think most of the guests were not happy about it.

The location of this hotel in the center of london is excellent. It´s very close to victoria station from where you can reach the national railroad as well as the underground trains.

only critism is that i did not like having to change from hanover hotel to airways because it disrupted the day a bit. it is nice to have your own room that you can stick to. either that or change the check in and out times to be closer together because i had time just hanging on to wait for my room the next day. apart from that i was happy with everything.

Honestly this hotel is perfect situated. this is good in order to stay there a few days. we have spent 4 days and was good in general. The price is cheap thinking the situation, and the breakfast is incluided. But,although the hotel is normal... there is a big problem: beds are horribles, honestly. and the bathroom is very very very small, veryyyy , is like a portable bathroom. For that i recomend this hotel to a people who spend 3 or 4 days, no more.

Per tutti gli italiani: La posizione è perfetta a 2 minuti da Victoria Station..ma l'albergo (se così lo vogliamo chiamare)fa proprio schifo:i soffitti sono pieni di macchie d'umidità, i bagni sono più piccoli di quelli della Tirrenia, cambiano gli asciugamani ogni giorno ma la moquette è putrida,i televisori sono degli anni 70 e si vede solo un canale a strisce,fili elettrici appesi ovunque nella stanza, tende con due kili di polvere sopra...niente a che vedere con lo standard di qualità dei nostri alberghi considerando che ho pagato la doppia più di cento euro a notte!!!!

Nos metieron en la habitacion 218 que estaba en el sotano. Era pequenna, fea, ningun detalle cuidado (cables por ahi, el suelo necesitaba una reforma,...) y el cuarto de banno era mas propio de un bar de viejos de pueblo que de un hotel.

The picture of the hotel look posh but the interior is very old. There is only 1 window which we did not open at night as the boiler room is less than 3 feet from the window. We came from Paris and stay at a 2 star hotel which is better in many aspects and cheaper.

La stanza non è molto grande ne tantomeno il bagno; l'importante è che abbiamo trovato sempre la camera pulita ogni giorno e la colazione era accettabile! Il personale buono! Albergo consigliato anche perchè vicino alle principali attrazioni londinesi e con la stazione sia ferroviaria che metropolitana a pochi passi!

Buon rapporto qualità/prezzo, le note negative sono date dalla moquette polverosa, dalle scale ripide (non c'è ascensore) e dal bagno microscopico.

nn avrei mai immaginato che potessero esistere stanze così piccole!la più grande delle nostre due valige nn è mai stata aperta del tutto perchè nn ci stava in camera... cmq la posizione è ottima, ma l'albergo è quello che è!nn è sporchissimo, è semplicemente in miniatura!la nostra stanza aveva anche il balcone, wow! direte voi...beh sul balcone era puntato un faro per illuminare la facciata direttamente orientato verso la nostra finestra, ovviamente sprovvista di tapparelle! l'hotel non è un granchè, ma in fin dei conti per visitare la città è accettabile, in fondo ci si dorme e basta!

Cuando legamos al hotel, estaba en obras, nos dieron una habitacion super sucia y además a la una de la noche cuando nos fuimos a duchar, nada mas habia agua caliente. Nos quejamos y nos metieron en otra habitacion sin terminar. Al dia siguiente nos dieron otra habitacion, muy pequeña, el aseo prefabricado y sucia. no lo recomiendo a nadie.

Es un asco, tanto la habitación como el baño eran un horror, tétricos, sucios, que nada tienen que ver con la fotografía. Precio de hotel de 3 estrellas y calidad peor que un motel de carretera. Suerte que sólo estuvimos una noche, porque fue horrible

Posizione dell'Hotel perfetta, in tre minuti sei a Victoria Station, la zona è tranquilla e pulita. L'hotel (may'06)trovato pulito ed in ordine, idem la stanza e bagno. Colazione di due tipi ben servita, anche se in un locale piccolo ed il personale è sempre a disposizione. Qualità-prezzo penso siano nella media saluti e have a good jouney.

I was disappointed. After arriving to the Airway hotel, I was asked to pay for my stay and AFTER the charge was made, I was informed that due to technical problems I would be staying in another hotel St. George Bed and Breakfast). I did not find the new location (or at least the room) equivalent to what I was expecting when making the reservation in Airway. Since I wasn't given an opportunity of staying in Airway, I am unable to rate this hotel in the above rubrics. I definetely did not like that I was not given an option of finding my own accomodation when the owner knew he could not accomodate me. Rather the card was charged and then I was sent to a hotel that likely was not on the level of what I was hoping for in Airway.

Reception is nice although small, but the stairways have not been redecorated yet and looka little tatty. The room was comfortable and large and clean. The en-suite was a self contained plastic cubicle which was functional and clean but not pretty. On the whole very good value for money.

It is an old hotel (wallpaper over wallpaper), cardboard walls. Also, the hot water did not work (so no shower was available although we did pay for one). The Airways hotel refuses to answer our complaints. They let their guests pay in advance, now I know why!!!!!
